Does this remind anyone of the pickle suprise video?

While indeed creepy, the pickle surprise absolutely trumps some yoga-fanatic in a shiny gold robe fake laughing, in terms of creepiness.

Pickle surprise may haunt me till I die.

Perhaps, but who gives a shit? Those people aren’t going to make progress anyway because they don’t work hard enough.

“Those people” seem to be slowly becoming the majority of posters here. That is why ‘shits’ are given.

True. I’m all for relative strength and obviously have gotten into some debates with you about some things from time to time.

But I’m also proud to say I’ve gained almost (so fucking close) 50 pounds of lean mass since I started training and the added muscle mass has actually HELPED improve my relative strength, as muscle mass seems to be relatively stronger than bone. I think some don’t get that.

Well, technically, muscles are easier to injure than bones. However, it takes muscle to move your bones, and the more muscle you have the easier it is to move said bones, especially when said bones have weights attached to them.

But, I get what you mean.
